Sepio’s solution has been
deployed in over 20 mid to large banks, insurance, and telecom companies in the
U.S., Singapore, Brazil, and Israel. The current install base secures over
600,000 workstations and network ports.

Rogue device cyber-attacks
are rapidly growing as demonstrated by recent reports of European banks losing
tens of millions of dollars after hackers implanted hardware attack tools that
compromised the secured infrastructure.

“These attacks are just
the ‘tip of the iceberg’ as most remain undisclosed.”, saidYossi Appleboum, CEO
of Sepio Systems Inc. “In many cases, hitting an organization is as simple as
replacing a trusted peripheral with a manipulated one. For example, we
discovered multiple Raspberry Pi computer modules, that include wireless
connectivity, implanted in keyboards that were used for exfiltration attacks.
The implant was emulating keyboard keystrokes to infect the workstation and
steal data and was running undetected before Sepio’s RDM was deployed.”

In another incident, an
off-the-shelf network router was used for infiltrating a Tier 1 bank. This tiny
device was plugged in-line between a printer and the enterprise network,
allowing covert remote access into the bank’s IT systems. Sepio’s software was
able to trace this rogue device based on its physical fingerprint.

“Manipulated devices,
intentionally used by insiders or socially engineered employees, are causing
significant damages. We also witness an increasing number of penetrated
uncontrolled supply chains that deliver infected equipment.” said Appleboum.
“While companies were focused on their software cyber risks, they overlooked
the threat coming from their hardware. Users can not install unregulated
software on a corporate computer but can easily connect an uncontrolled
hardware accessory.”

Sepio Prime provides security teams with full visibility into their hardware assets and their behavior in real time. A comprehensive policy enforcement module allows administrators to easily define granular device usage rules and continuously monitor and protect their infrastructure. Leveraging a combination of physical fingerprinting technology together with device behavior analytics, Sepio’s software-only solution offers instant detection and response to any threat or breach attempt that coming from a manipulated or infected element.
